I have huge size of files like 565678919856 bytes in our server. I am not able to take the word count of this file using regular unix command wc -l . Do we have any oter method or command to find the word count for large files in unix.

Is this just one file? I only ask as the bible (itself a very large book) is roughly 5mb while your file is approx 10,000 times bigger than this. Can we ask what is in this file? I assume it's not the collected thoughts of G.W.Bush. I believe wc has an issue printing counts higher than 1000000.

Thanks for the update. Its just the single file.
