Thanks MadeInGermany,
It worked for a small line of code, when I executed against the 44000 lines , it did not do what it was intended to do, both the script awk and shell version, only had 1 line in the output files. not sure what happened.

Then I used shell array and grep to get the desired out put files , and working ,
Below is the code I made with grep ,

Code:
F=datafile.txt
cat $F | grep "^[a-z]" |awk '{print $1}' | sort | uniq -c| sort -rnk1 > hostlist
H=hostlist  #number of uniqe host filterd out in the file. 

#Stored each unique host names in array AA ..
typeset -i i=0 k=0 ; for j in `cat $H`; do  AA[$i]=$j ;  i=`expr $i + 1`  ; done

     ## AC=ArrayCount /Iteration needed
      AC=$(echo ${#AA[@]} ) 
...


    #AH :ArrayHost Name     #AHF: ArrayHostFile desired output filename.
    while [[ ${k} -le ${AC} ]]
    do
     
      AH=${AA[${k}]} ; AHF=${AH}.out
      grep ${AH} $F > ${AHF} ; ls -l ${AHF}    
      k=`expr $k + 1`
    done
...

It generated around 200 individual files from the big datafile . Again Many Thanks.. to both, It was kind of stuck when I started with this.., thanks..

NAME
zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression SYNOPSIS
zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename... DESCRIPTION
Zgrep invokes grep on compressed or gzipped files. These grep options will cause zgrep to terminate with an error code: (-[drRzZ]|--di*|--exc*|--inc*|--rec*|--nu*). All other options specified are passed directly to grep. If no file is specified, then the standard input is decompressed if necessary and fed to grep. Otherwise the given files are uncompressed if necessary and fed to grep. If the GREP environment variable is set, zgrep uses it as the grep program to be invoked. EXIT CODE
2 - An option that is not supported was specified. AUTHOR
