I see that alot of zoas/polys are sold as 1 or 2 polp frags. Are these more delicate than purchasing 7-10 polps? Do they need any special consideration because they are so small? They scare me.

If they are fragged correctly, it doesn't matter if it's 1 or 10 polyps. Obviously you better your chances of success if there are more polyps, but the success of zoas mostly depends on the factors in your tank rather than the number of polyps. I have purchased many single-polyp frags and have had great success.
If you are buying them from another hobbyist, make sure you request that the frag is healed well enough to ship. If the frag isn't healed and the polyp comes unglued during transit, it's much more difficult and traumatic to re-glue a single polyp than multiple.
