    best to create a paginated sitemap .. so break them up into chunks of 100 links on each page

    It used to be that you can not put more than 100 links on one page, but now you can put as many links as you want. But it will be very difficult for user to find something if you have 1000 links on the same page. So, as cdiprose suggested, make paginated sitemap.

    You can break it up into multiple sitemaps. Take a look at Ssandecki's Google Sitemap FAQ.
