This is insecure and a hack but it should work:

perl -nle 's/#.*$//; system("yourscript $_") if (/\d/);'

egrep '[0-9]' | sed -e 's/\#.*$//' | tr '\n' '\000' | xargs -0 -i echo
yourscriptname {} | sh -x

Note these are pretty trusting of your input.

If you're ok with your script being run with no commandline options you
could just:
awk '{print "yourscript " $0}' < yourdata | sh -x
or
awk '{system("yourscript " $0)}' < yourdata
