You probably, got hit in the muscle, injured the tissues around the muscle. try applying some heat to the injured area. How long the soreness last depends on the individual. Usually, the soreness goes away in about 10 days, if taken care of properly. U should have applied ice after being hit.

The higher up the leg you go, the more fat that there is. If it had hit you in the calf, it wouldn't have hurt as much. Think about it as if someone gave you a dead leg, why can't you get a dead arm...because its more muscle and bone. You probably just suffered a hip inflammation, which is soreness right below and around the hip, and it takes about 1-2 weeks to completely heal.
