Add AS host to the first search, like this:

`AppliService` Name="wuauserv" 
| stats dc(host) AS host

Your first search is not returning host field. So the filter might not work for you.

You can try this instead.

First search

`AppliService`  Name="wuauserv" 
| fields Name, host 

Second Search

  | loadjob savedsearch="admin:TEST_sh:FO_EventServiceLog_Serv_1" 
 | search host=$tok_filterhost$
 | stats dc(host)
