Running an orted directly won't work - it is intended solely to be launched when running a job with "mpirun".
You application doesn't immediately sounds like it -needs- MPI, though you could always use it anyway. The MPI messaging system is fast, but it isn't clear if your application will necessarily benefit from that speed. It depends upon how much communication is going on vs computation and idle time. If you are more familiar with the non-MPI methods, I would personally do it that way unless I found a need for MPI - for example, a place where MPI collectives such as MPI_Allgather would be helpful.
