. . . a word.
You can write “a lot.” It means the opposite of “a little.” When you use it like that, it’s a noun. “There are a lot of stones in that field.”
Or there is: “a lot.” Like, “He talks a lot.” That’s an adverb, modifying “talks.”
Or, if what you mean is to “give out,” “apportion,” “divide” or “distribute,” then you can use “allot.” That’s a verb: “I will allot them each a share of the award.”
Don’t ever write “alot.”
