Is it possible to download web archives as WARC files instead of WACZ?

Either warc or warc.gz?

Yes, from the individual archive view, on the left, you can download either WACZ or WARC:

Note that the WACZ is just a zip file that contains WARC as well. We recommend WACZ as it includes additional metadata, such as list of pages and a build-in index, and that makes it easy to host large web archives online and make them accessible without download the entire file. With WARC, the entire file needs to be downloaded as there is no built-in index (due to limitation of the WARC standard).
