I ran into the same issue few months ago. But the below is very helpful
Easy way out.

I am taking your example of HTTP, but you can apply this to almost all the RPMs that you think exist on the face of the planet.

I used my NIM server to download all rpms. My OS was AIX71 (same as yours)

Go to AIX Open Source Packages | Main / AIX Open Source Packages (select your OS version) and download wget, why 'wget' because you will use that to download all the rpms.

Install the wget rpm on your NIM machine or your local machine.

Get dependencies list
From your browser
Go to "http://www.oss4aix.org/download/rpmdb/deplists/aix71" and make sure you are looking for right package and version you want to get the dependencies for, in your case it should be httpd-2.4.10-1.aix5.1.ppc.deps.
Now you know, what you are looking for, you can proceed with next step.

FROM NIM Server or your actual server where you are installing the Apache web server, do the below (The server should have wget rpm installed prior to doing this).

Downloaded the dependent RPMs list for HTTP
# wget http://www.oss4aix.org/download/rpmdb/deplists/aix71/httpd-2.4.10-1.aix5.1.ppc.deps --> this will download the list of all dependent RPMs to your local server (I used NIM).

Since you got all the dependent rpm names
You now run
wget -B Index of /download/everything/RPMS -i httpd-2.4.10-1.aix5.1.ppc.depsNote: It will download all the dependent RPMS with compatible versions to httpd-2.4.10-1

After this just run
rpm -ivh <rpm(s)> or write a loop to read and install all rpms from httpd-2.4.10-1.aix5.1.ppc.deps file. However you want to do it.

Its very simple way to download RPM and its dependencies.

I hope this helps.

yumdownloader

yumdownloader(1)														  yumdownloader(1)

NAME

       yumdownloader - download RPM packages from Yum repositories

SYNOPSIS

       yumdownloader [options] package1 [package2...]

DESCRIPTION

       yumdownloader is a program for downloading RPMs from Yum repositories.

GENERAL OPTIONS

       -h, --help
	      Help; display a help message and then quit.

       --destdir DIR
	      Specify a destination directory for the download.  Defaults to the current directory.

       --urls Instead of downloading RPMs, list the URLs that would be downloaded.

       --resolve
	      When downloading RPMs, resolve dependencies and also download the required packages.

       --source
	      Instead of downloading the binary RPMs, download the source RPMs.

       --archlist=ARCH1[,ARCH2...]
	      Limit  the  query to packages of given architecture(s). Valid values are all architectures known to rpm/yum such as 'i386' and 'src'
	      for source RPMS. Note that repoquery will now change yum's "arch" to the first value in the archlist. So "--archlist=i386,i686" will
	      change yum's canonical arch to i386, but allow packages of i386 and i686.

ADDITIONAL OPTIONS

       Yumdownloader inherits all other options from yum. See the yum(8) man page for more information

EXAMPLES

       Download the kernel RPM to /var/tmp:
	      yumdownloader --destdir /var/tmp kernel

       List the URL for the kernel and kernel-smp RPMs:
	      yumdownloader --urls kernel kernel-smp

FILES

       As  yumdownloader  uses	YUM libraries for retrieving all the information, it relies on YUM configuration for its default values like which
       repositories to use. Consult YUM documentation for details:

       /etc/yum.conf
       /etc/yum/repos.d/
       /var/cache/yum/

SEE ALSO

       yum.conf (5)
       http://yum.baseurl.org/

AUTHORS

       See the Authors file included with this program.

BUGS

       There are of course no bugs, but should you find any, you should first consult the FAQ section on  http://yum.baseurl.org/wiki/Faq  and	if
       unsuccessful  in  finding a resolution contact the mailing list: yum-devel@lists.baseurl.org.  To file a bug use http://bugzilla.redhat.com
       for Fedora/RHEL/Centos related bugs and http://yum.baseurl.org/report for all other bugs.
