I have to take health checks every day from ironport servers and store some information regarding the server's status at that point of time on a excel sheet. How can I automate this process. I have been able to login to the server through a batch file. I use Putty and connection type is SSH.

You can retrieve the URL http://yourironportserver/xml/status from the Ironport device to obtain the statistics in XML format. This URL may need to be authenticated and/or use https, depending on your Ironport security configuration.

You can write a script to retrieve the XML using the above URL, then process it into whatever format you desire, such as CSV or XLS. As far as I am aware, there is no third-party tool already written and generally available to do this for you, though the check_ironport script for MRTG and Nagios may provide enough information for you to write your own.
