Yesterday I moved my site to another host and got a unique IP and it is much slower. SmartWhoIs is saing me host is reachable 1886 ms. average. Hope it is not gonna affect traffic and spiders?

I would be concerned Vlad.
Did the nameserver info change with the move and has the DNS fully propagated? What I have in mind is that maybe the route is taking a few extra hops to get there because it's still going to the old nameservers which then have to forward requests to the new ones.
If not, it's certainly something I would raise with your host. When I do lookup tests I like to see considerably less than your average. However I don't use SmartWhois either, so I'm not sure what they measure exactly.

Randy,
Wheither it is SmartWhois or other Lookup stuff I feel the slow myself. And I asked my friend in different parts of the world they feel same. Nameservers are all new, and I would suppose that DNS propagated - I checked it on www.dnsreport.com. Well and I filled the new hosting space with website quickly.

Maybe your new hosting company is much slower due to their equipment, bandwidth, network, etc. or they have a lot more traffic hitting their network than your old host did? It is most likely due to this and not due to the fact that you now have a unique IP address.

you can test it from different parts of the world yourself.
http://www.traceroute.org/
you can see each hop then and see where the slowdowns are occuring.

I would give it a few days just to make sure it's not a DNS propagation issue Vlad. But I'd certainly raise the subject with your new host right away.
In this day and age that kind of response time unforgivable IMO. You'll likely be able to tell if they've had the same type of complaint before.

I usually "visual trace" for things like this. it's a nice program and has a free trial.
