Nagios only checks hosts after a service on them have returned non-OK. 
If a service on the host returns OK without a hostcheck having been run, 
the status of the host is set to UP and the host-check output is set to 
"Services working, so host assumed to be up" (or something like that).

In short, if you have no services defined for your hosts, they will 
never be checked (normally) and therefore never appear as UP or DOWN.
