I don't think any company requires an ID for hosting, and if they did they wouldn't be in business for very long. I have never heard of any requiring one, but I've never used HostGator.
If there is any hint of fraud, they might require an ID. Like IP from different country, claiming to be from other, and paypal account or credit card on someone else's name. Not only Hostgator, but it can come with any good hosting company.
