Code:
awk 'NR==FNR{ j=1; for(i=1;i<=NF;i++){a[j]=a[j]" "$i;j++}next}
{ c=0; t=split(a[++g],arr," ") for(k=1;k<=t;k++) { if(arr[k]<$1) { c++ } } print c; }' file1 file2

Hi Ahamed,

I do not know why this code gives me syntax error.
Could you please help me to figure it out?

Thanks for your time,

Oops, there was a small mistake!

Code:
awk 'NR==FNR{ j=1; for(i=1;i<=NF;i++){a[j]=a[j]" "$i;j++}next}
{ c=0; t=split(a[++g],arr," "); for(k=1;k<=t;k++) { if(arr[k]<$1) { c++ } } print c; }' file1 file2

If solaris, use nawk!
